The spirit of the law is much different than the actual law. What these companies are doing isn't illegal.
Closing these loopholes may bring in some more revenue in the short-term, but if it no longer makes sense financially, they will just move their HQ to another country completly.

But I think we should fix the law so that it operates as intended, and/or re-evaluate the original intent in light of economic realities. What we should not do is say "hey wait, this bug is actually a feature, if we fix it, these companies will leave". That seems silly to me.
